Report Declares Birmingham Leads on Innovation in Ethnic Minority Youth Crime

Writing about web page http://www2.warwick.ac.uk/newsandevents/pressreleases/NE100000013315/

With the recent ethnic riots in Birmingham it is no surprise that a new report by researchers at the University of Warwick declares Birmingham to be a leading city on ethnic minority youth crime – the surprise is that they mean Birmingham is leading the way in innovation in its design of programmes to prevent ethnic minority youth crime. However the report notes that the schemes only touch the lives of a few hundred such young people and calls for this work to be extended to serve thousands rather than just hundreds. The report also calls for more co-ordination of effort and for real consultation with young people.
